Chapter 842 I’m Not a Good Mother
“Don’t you have a solution for this?” The doctor shook his head. “There aren’t any effective methods. All you can do is prolong the intervals between feeding, as well as apply some lanolin nipple cream. It won’t alleviate the pain entirely, but will soothe your breasts.”
“But is it okay that the baby ingests the cream when he’s being fed?” Jude inquired out of concern. “The product is tried and tested, so it’s safe. Nonetheless, you can wipe it off if you’re worried about it.” A sullen look crept onto her face. “How long will the condition persist?”
“The condition will improve as time passes. You don’t need to worry too much about it, Mrs. Raffles. Being a mother is tough, so you need to hang in there.” The doctor made it a point to offer her some encouragement.
After the doctor left, Jude fell limply into Charles’ arms. “I don’t think I can make it, Charles. It’s too hard. People make it seem so easy whenever I talk to them about my problems. Why can’t I do it?”
Charles knew Jude was a headstrong woman, so she believed she should be able to do anything that other people could do. “It’s alright, Jude. You’re already great as you are.”
“What’s so great about me? I can’t produce enough breast milk for my baby, so he’s always crying due to hunger. Don’t people always say that the first month is when mothers produce the most breast milk? It’s annoying that I can’t produce enough even during my first month.” Jude was pouting in chagrin. “I’m not a good mother.”
Hearing that made Charles feel sorry for her. In the afternoon, a masseuse visited them to give Jude a massage, which was said to be able to promote lactation. Charles was there when Jude removed her shirt before lying down to allow the masseuse to massage her breasts. Throughout the process, she gritted her teeth to suppress the pain while turning to face the other side.
